WEBVTT SEASON AND THE COUNTRY'S LIMITED INFRASTRUCTURE. TODAY MARKS CHRIS CHRISTIE'S FOURTH TRIP TO THE GRANITE STATE TO SUPPORT G.O.P. GUBERNATORIAL HOPEFUL WALT HAVENSTEIN. ACCORDING TO A WMUR GRANITE STATE POLL RELEASED MONDAY, HAVENSTEIN IS TRAILING GOVERNOR HASSAN BY SO POINTS. THE NEW JERSEY -- 10 POINTS. THE NEW JERSEY GOVERNOR WALKED THE NORTH COUNTRY TODAY TO HELP HAVENSTEIN WIN. CHATTING WITH CONSTITUENTS AT A BERLIN MILK BAR AND SHAKING VETS' HANDS AT THE LANCASTER V.F.W., CHRISTIE CAMPAIGNED FOR BOUGHT HAVENSTEIN FRIDAY. FIRST TIME WE GOT HIM ABOVE THE NOTCHES, BUT HE'S GOING TO BE BACK, AND NEXT TIME WEARING A PLAID SHIRT. IT WILL BE COLD ENOUGH FOR FLANNEL. DOES THAT MEAN CHRISTIE WILL BE STUMPING FOR HIMSELF SOON? I HOPE TO COME UP HERE AND WORK WITH THE GOVERNOR ELECT, GETTING HIS GOVERNMENT TOGETHER AND GIVE HIM THE BEST ADVICE I CAN. BEYOND THAT, WHO KNOWS. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PLACE. SO MAYBE I'LL COME UP ON VACATION. CHRISTIE SAYS HE'S CAMPAIGNING FOR HAVENSTEIN BECAUSE HE CAN WIN. WALT IS IN A DEAD EVEN RACE. WITH 25 DAYS TO GO YOU GOTTA MAKE CHOICES, THAT'S WHAT LEADERSHIP IS ALL ABOUT. SO I'M GOING TO THE PLACES WHERE I CAN MAKE THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE BEST CHANCE TO WIN. WE HAVE WHAT I CALL A WALKING DEAD ECONOMY, WE ARE DEAD LAST IN NEW ENGLAND. WE HAVE FALLEN BEHIND VERMONT AND RHODE ISLAND. I REMIND YOU, VERMONT AND RHODE ISLAND. FOR ME THAT'S NOT JUST UNACCEPTABLE, FRANKLY, IT'S AN EMBARRASSMENT. HAVENSTEIN HIT GOVERNOR HASSAN ON HER ECONOMIC POLICY AND ADDRESSED AN ATTACK AD WHICH ALLEGES HAVENSTEIN IS A FAILED C.E.O. WHO RAN HIS COMPANY INTO THE DITCH, SHEDDING THOUSANDS OF JOBS. I LEFT THE COMPANY, THE CHAIRMAN PRAISED ME FOR MY MANAGEMENT ACUMEN AND MY LEADERSHIP AND THANKED ME FOR GETTING US POSTURED FOR THE FUTURE. SO I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH HIS EVALUATION OF MY PERFORMANCE. AS OPPOSED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S WHO HAS HAD NO EXPERIENCE WHATSOEVER WHEN IT COMES TO BEING A C.E.O.
